i have to do this stupid movie trailer thing for a short story as my final english project and i regret picking this.

when it comes to videos im a perfectionist and so while others would just have 30 seconds clips with text over and over (the required length is 3 minutes) i am only halfway done (its due tomarrow) and im gonna have to be real creative to stretch this out for another 1.5 minutes without making it look trash.

i still have to record audio too and use watermark removers on all the stock footage i use because im using stock footage because its more cinematic and i am again a perfectionist when it comes to vidoes/slideshows.

i shouldve just picked the essay

You made the right choice. Embrace your creativity.

A helpful mindset to hold in times like these is that of progress over perfection.

Perfection is impossible. You will always find something to improve in your work. Never will you create something without looking back on it and finding something you’d have done elsehow.

Accept this reality and focus on progress.

This video is not your end goal. Your end goal is all the projects to come. This video serves only to teach you lessons that will aid you in those future projects.

Your work doesn’t have to be perfect. Your work only has to get better.
